I was in my sewing room again today, still cleaning and tiding things up. I got side tracked with my glass jar up on the window sill full of vintage mother of pearl, thread and glass buttons. Aren't they just lovely? I seriously need to do some sewing but these are all so special will I have the heart to actually use them? It's like that piece of fabric that's just too great to cut and then goes out of style and ends up donated somewhere. But, buttons aren't like that - they don't go out of style, at least not these ones. If you're 100 years old and you haven't gone out of style, you won't be!

Outside of loving my little business and helping people to make family heirlooms I have a wonderful life here in Abbotsford, BC. I love old things, family life, healthy living, green living, literature, sewing, gardening, parenting and cooking. That's what I'll be blogging about day after day.
